BOYS' BASKETBALL: Nelson tripped up by Adair, 49-46

It was a heartbreaking loss on Friday, as Nelson County sprinted out to a double-digit lead in the first quarter, only to see visiting Adair County storm back to notch a 49-46 win.

“I thought we fought hard, but we were sluggish tonight,” Cardinals coach Bev Hart said. “We had a good chance to win, but we just couldn’t make some plays.”

Nelson County (6-10) came out strong and took control early with transition play and led 16-3 with 3:16 remaining in the first quarter.
